4 Beeps, check engine....

I've got an 09 1200 prototype, apparently one of two made that year. It's only got 350 miles on it and in it's stock form always ran good. Recently we put on a Powderlites Turbo. During the install the o-ring between the motor and the oil tank came unseated. The sled ran great, no codes, etc but obviously leaked oil. So we tried to reseat it and couldn't and ended up pulling the motor. Once installed again we fired it up to find that we had pried on the oil tank too hard and cracked it, time to pull the motor again. Now the motor is back in, no oil leaks, but we are getting the four beep check engine code. We took it to RPM and hooked it up the diagnostic. It showed errors in throttle position sensor, manifold absolute pressure and temp sensor, coolant temp sensor and crank position sensor. The code said "occurred" and "ongoing" or whatever means it is still occurring. The sled runs in limp mode. We checked the grounds from those four sensors and cleaned them, although there was no corrosion on them. The guys from PL said they had an 09 prototype and just couldn't get it to run right until they changed out the ECM. I'm wondering if that is the problem, but it ran good and never showed any codes before. I'm also wondering if it's just a bad sensor? Also, does anyone have a good ECM they could send me to try, if it works I'll buy it, if not I'll send it back? I was told if I buy a brand new ECM and try it only to find out that's not the problem, they won't take it back. Any other ideas? Thanks for any help!
 
The sled PL had trouble with had a totally different problem, it would beep and shut off while riding it when it transitioned into boost.
It had a "TEST ECU" as written on the ecu itself and was never meant to be ran.

You definatly have a wiring issue related to you pulling the engine. I am thinking you have a wire pinched somewhere or maybe a
couple of plugs mixed up. It is running a rapidbike module as well I suppose? It is tied into the tps for its 5 volt feed maybe
the problem is there or in its wiring. One thing to note is that when a rapidbike is connected to you sled you will always show a
crank sensor fault as it is now ran through the rapidbike and the stock ecu cannot "see" the sensor and assumes it is faulty. Good luck,
look hard you will find a simple solution. Check for 5 volts at all the sensors, this will probably be your problem.
